Mainstream media largely silent about possible honor killings in Dallas
Is this the beginning of an Islamic "honor" killing tidal wave in America? Now there has been a second multiple “honor“ killing within a week. This must be smashed immediately or it will only grow like the cancer it is.
FROM JIHADWATCH.ORG:
Mainstream media largely silent about possible honor killings in Dallas
The courageous and outspoken Phyllis Chesler excoriates the fashionable moral equivalence and unwillingness to hold the Islamic community to account for crimes that are related to Islamic culture and mores. She reports at Pajamas Media: The blogs and the local Texas media (the Dallas Morning News) were all over this. Hot Air, Atlas Shrugs, Jihad Watch, were too. The only national coverage of this story was contained in the Washington Times. SEE HERE
Why did the national and international media so far shy clear of this story? Perhaps they chose to dig deeper first or maybe they were waiting for an arrest to be made. But one also wonders: Were they afraid of being accused of “Islamophobia” if they reported the truth? Did they not want to use the word “Arab” or “Muslim” lest they be attacked as “racists”?
But these beautiful and now murdered sisters feared for their lives. They told people that their father was threatening them. Their own mother has now led police to the father as the probable murderer.
They could have been saved if a school or police official had been trained to pre-emptively recognize and rescue all such girls and women in danger of being killed by their families in honor killings.
NEWSFLASH: Today, on January 3, 2008, the hardcopy edition of the New York Times carried a story about a presumably non-Muslim honor killing in Chicago, in which a father, Subhash Chander, killed his pregnant daughter, son-in-law and 3 year-old grandson “because he disapproved of his daughter’s marriage” to a lower-caste man. All the protagonists are from India or are of Indian origin. So far, I can find no coverage of the Texas honor killing by a Muslim father in the pages of the Paper of Record.
